SOLVED: Cannot create FrameMaker structured book

[Jeff Coatsworth]

Can you give me the heading of the section? - mine says "XML with FrameMaker" and "Create, open, and save XML files"

I have FrameMaker help in a portable document format file.  Near the bottom of PDF p 440 of 615, I added a Sticky Note containing the procedure.

 If you indicate which page in the help system (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/framemaker/using/index.html) should be updated, you can either make your change yourself or have one of us copy & paste your text.

Rick Quatro generously provided the solution in a telephonic conversation.

¿Max Hoffman, will you please do whatever necessary to get the following procedure added to the help for FrameMaker?

	NOTE:  This is based on my telephonic conversation 2013-04-26-05 with Rick Quatro (Carmen Publishing ( www.frameexpert.com/ ), 585-283-5045).
Files added to the book do not have to be valid.
  
SYMPTOM
In a structured book, in the Structure View window, the program displays the top-level element in the book as <NoName>.

MALFUNCTION
The parent element for the book is not applied to the top-level element.

CORRECTIVE ACTION
    1.  After adding structured files to the book, update the book.  In the Structure View window, the program displays the name of each top-level element in each file.  The program displays the top-level element in the book as <NoName>.

   2.  In the Structure View window, choose <NoName>.  In the Edit Attributes window, on the Elements tab, choose the Options... button.  The Set Available Elements window appears.

   3.  In the Set Available Elements window, in the Show Tags For: area, in the Valid Elements for Working Start to Finish option button, ensure a dot and choose the Set button.  The program sets and displays the available elements.

   4.  On the Elements tab, choose the top-level element for the book.  The program changes <NoName> to the name of the chosen element.

   5.  In the Structure View, arrange elements to conform.

Again, many thanks to Rick Quatro.  As many others have written before, "¡The contributors to this list are the _best_!"
